Civilian Panel Blankets
I have a large selection of these nice blankets. Most are wool / cotton and made of two panels sewn together. Very nice for civilian and CS military use, these hard to find blankets are normally selling for $100 or more at antique shops. I have been able to procure several and offer them for $75 each. Before ordering, please email with your color wishes to check current stock.
